Roommate: “…Huh?”

The hurried footsteps on the other end of the phone suddenly stopped, and the roommate on the other side seemed to be stunned by this inexplicable answer: "Husband? Where can I find a husband?"

"Wait!" Then the roommate seemed to remember something and exclaimed, and then I heard a burst of quick footsteps, "dong dong dong", and I knew she was running.

Then there was the crisp sound of a switch being pressed, and finally the rolling sound of the pulley of the window being pulled open. Then she heard her roommate's slightly excited voice, "Where is it? Can you see which husband is mine? Was the millet bought by an underage child thrown down from the upstairs by her parents?"

Xiao Xiaosu looked back and saw that the lights on a balcony on the building not far away were turned on. He could vaguely see a woman in pajamas with disheveled hair, sticking her head out of the open window, looking left and right, as if looking for something.

Then the woman seemed to have seen Xiao Xiaosu, who was standing under the street light, and raised her hand to wave at her. At the same time, the roommate's voice came from the phone: "What kind of millet is this? Take a look. Don't worry about whether it is broken or not. Put it away first. I will find out what's going on in the owner group tomorrow and see if I can return the item to the child."

Hearing her roommate's cheerful and lively voice, Xiao Xiaosu's chaotic thoughts and the horrifying feeling that she dared not think about too much finally calmed down.

Without turning around, she raised her hand and pointed in the direction in front of her, where the tall figure was standing. "It's not Gu Zi, it's a person, Zhongli! The Zhongli you always talk about! The Rock King! He fell from the sky!"

At the end, her tone became excited.

But her roommate responded with a slightly confused look: "Ah? The emperor was assassinated, and the whole place was sealed off?"

Xiao Xiaosu said hurriedly: "He was standing in front of me. My phone just fell, and he helped pick it up and gave it back to me."

After a moment of silence, my roommate's hesitant voice rang out: "...Are you kidding me?"

Xiao Xiaosu was also a little confused for a moment, not understanding why her roommate asked this: "No."

"But, but I only saw you." The roommate's voice became a little weak when he heard this, and he immediately urged in a low voice: "Come back quickly, don't run into anything unclean."

After getting this answer, Xiao Xiaosu was also stunned. She immediately turned around to check what was going on. Sure enough, the tall and handsome figure who was much taller than her had disappeared without a trace.

She looked around again, but didn't find any trace. She felt her mind starting to get confused again.

Is it because I have been working overtime these days that I am finally hallucinating?

Or was it really as my roommate said, that I really had come across something unclean.

Xiao Xiaosu only felt his scalp tingling and a chill sweeping through his body. He had no time to think about any details. He ran towards the building where his home was as if there was a ghost chasing him.

Jumping off a building feels good for a moment, but you will end up in a crematorium.

The distance from the top of the building to the bottom is only a few dozen meters, and it only takes a few seconds for an adult to fall.

The speed of free fall was also very fast. Yuan Zhuoyue didn't feel the feeling of being lifted up by the wind, like a flying bird, for long before he fell heavily to the ground.

She could feel the huge impact force being fed back to her body, and the vibration caused made it seem as if her internal organs had shifted and her brain felt shaken.

But what she felt first was not pain, but a dazed feeling of not knowing where she was. She stared at the night sky dotted with sparse stars with a dull look, and was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses.

What followed was a severe pain that swept through the whole body.

She had no idea where the pain was coming from. Her skin, muscles, bones, and internal organs, every inch of her body was emitting unbearable pain.

Yuan Zhuoyue took great effort to suppress the painful groan that was about to come out of his mouth. He lay peacefully on the grass for a long time, but he still couldn't recover from the intense pain.

The small golden cube followed her and fell from the roof with her, floating in the sky above her head like a golden meteor.

He even made a gloating voice: "Are you confused after the fall, little brother?"

Intense pain filled Yuan Zhuoyue's senses, causing her to lose control of her body. However, her consciousness was still terrifyingly clear, and the thoughts in her mind were not affected in the slightest by the severe pain.

Even though her vision was blacking out and her ears were filled with buzzing tinnitus, the gloating voice emitted by the small golden cube was still clearly transmitted to her ears and was received by her.

Yuan Zhuoyue ignored the gloating little golden cube. It was not that she did not want to pay attention to it, but she could not do it. The huge impact caused by the fall seemed to shatter her voice, making her unable to make a sound and completely losing the ability to speak.

"Oh, no, no, I should call you little sister. Sister, you must be confused after falling." The golden cube continued to chatter: "I told you not to jump, but you insisted on being stubborn. Now you are fine, aren't you?"

The bright light emitted by the small golden cube made Yuan Zhuoyue feel dizzy. She simply closed her eyes and waited for the pain in her body to leave her like a thread.

The golden cube sighed again, and it floated to Yuan Zhuoyue's ears. It seemed that seeing how uncomfortable she was, its voice softened a little: "Although this body is relatively durable, its perception of the outside world and all its physiological reactions are exactly the same as what ordinary humans can feel."

"You are asking for trouble. You are asking for trouble!" Finally, he slightly reprimanded her, but also asked with concern: "How do you feel now? Can you move?"

"...Not very good." A low, slightly hoarse voice, like a whisper, floated out from between Yuan Zhuoyue's slightly moving lips and teeth.

The golden cube immediately replied in surprise: "Oh my? You can still speak in this situation? That's amazing!"

The pain in her body seemed to have reached a peak. When the pain she felt exceeded the threshold she could bear, she instead developed a feeling of numbness and unreality.

The pain still existed, but her feelings, sensations, and consciousness seemed to be severed. She could feel the pain from her muscles, bones, and internal organs, but she could no longer feel the endless pain personally.

It was as if her soul had grown an invisible barrier between this body that did not belong to her, isolating her from all the pain.
